The project Digital Driven Diagnostics, prognostics and therapeutics for sustainable Health care originated as part of the Complementary National Plan (CNP), which has a specific focus on Health, Environment, Biodiversity and Climate.

D³4Health, in particular, promotes research in the area of Health, through the development of digital technologies and data mining approaches, applied to the treatment of 5 main diseases with the greatest impact on the population and health system: metastatic colon cancer, liver and bile duct cancer, central nervous system cancer, diabetes type I and multiple sclerosis.

Specifically, the project aims to develop digital and biological twins for the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of five benchmark diseases, through the collection of health data analysed by artificial intelligence-based algorithms, collected on a multilayer platform and also obtained through the development and use of innovative technologies such as wearable devices, sensors and biomarkers.

The D³4 Health Foundation, established to manage the project, consists of 28 partners including public and private universities, research institutes and companies. Sapienza University of Rome is the project leader and the scientific contact person is Prof. Carlo Catalano (This email address is being protected from spambots.

The project is also a great opportunity for young researchers to be part of an R&D program aimed at health system innovation through the digital technology transition, where Research and Business come together to jointly promote and support high-level research, technology transfer and higher education.
